Book Description
Amateur detective Mallory Viridian’s talent for solving murders ruined her life on Earth and drove her to live on an alien space station, but her problems still follow her in this witty, self-aware novel that puts a speculative spin on murder mysteries, from the Hugo-nominated author of Six Wakes. From idyllic small towns to claustrophobic urban landscapes, Mallory Viridian is constantly embroiled in murder cases that only she has the insight to solve. But outside of a classic mystery novel, being surrounded by death doesn’t make you a charming amateur detective, it makes you a suspect and a social pariah. So when Mallory gets the opportunity to take refuge on a sentient space station, she thinks she has the solution. Surely the murders will stop if her only company is alien beings. At first her new existence is peacefully quiet…and markedly devoid of homicide. But when the station agrees to allow additional human guests, Mallory knows the break from her peculiar reality is over. After the first Earth shuttle arrives, and aliens and humans alike begin to die, the station is thrown into peril. Stuck smack-dab in the middle of an extraterrestrial whodunit, and wondering how in the world this keeps happening to her anyway, Mallory has to solve the crime—and fast—or the list of victims could grow to include everyone on board….

Book Description
In this Hugo nominated science fiction thriller by Mur Lafferty, a crew of clones awakens aboard a space ship to find they're being hunted-and any one of them could be the killer. Maria Arena awakens in a cloning vat streaked with drying blood. She has no memory of how she died. This is new; before, when she had awakened as a new clone, her first memory was of how she died. Maria's vat is one of seven, each one holding the clone of a crew member of the starship Dormire, each clone waiting for its previous incarnation to die so it can awaken. And Maria isn't the only one to die recently. . . Unlock the bold new science fiction thriller that Corey Doctorow calls Mur's "breakout book".

In an alternate timeline, Earth has been destroyed by nightmarish wraiths called into existence by a genetic experiment gone wrong. Left with no defense against the creatures, survivors are forced underground to avoid slaughter. Hiding in a small bunker below the remains of a hidden Nevada research station, Annie Ross and her two closest friends struggle to adapt to their new, dangerous life. In a sealed room deep in the bunker, they find a long-lost journal. The strange events it details convince Annie that a member of the ill-fated Franklin Expedition of 1845 may have a hidden power, a direct link to the origin of the genetic mutants who created the deadly wraiths in the first place - and he's possibly the only person who can stop the creatures for good. Together, Annie and her friends form a daring plan to travel through time and enlist the help of Harry Goodsir, attempting to change the fate of one man to ultimately save what's left of humanity.
